Advent. This song was my first exposure to Opeth back in 1998 and I was just floored. This song really was grounbreaking to me, not in a technical sense, but more in a creative one. Morningrise really had a vibe like no other metal band at the time. In terms of sounding modern and fresh...

I remember listening to a sample from "The Drapery Falls" on Opeth.com before Blackwater Park was released, and I recall loving what I heard. When Blackwater Park was finally released, I left early that morning to go and buy it. After buying it(with a big smile on my face upon exiting the...

His married now, that's the whole reason behind the mustache.

Thanks guys for your suggestions. Seems like buying the special edition is a good idea. I forgot it came with visual material aswell. Thanks again.

Just wondering, I bought the regular version of Watershed, not the special edition. Now tell me...would it be worth it if I bought this special edition for the bonus tracks or would it be a total waste of my money? ( yes I know I should of bought the special edition in the first place, but they...

Yeah I'm also one of those that really loved his bass playing; even though there were quite a few screw-ups on some of his work(more noteably on Morningrise). The thing about Johan that really intrigued me was his style(almost erotic at times, and progressive in nature), i have to admit, his...

Yeah I also love The Mars Volta's new release. Just can't stop listening to the damn thing. Amazing album.

I'm also one of those that is not all that impressed with this release. I honeslty feel like it could of been a lot better. It feels as if its missing some sort of dynamic in the song structures. Even the stand-out tracks like "Heir Apparent" and "The Lotus Eater" seem kind of incomplete, they...

Yes, interesting review.

When is it going broadcast again?

Exactly. You don't see the appeal, But to somebody else it could differ in regards to how they perceive a band member that comes from a whole different culture. All I know is that people could be weird, and it could be quite strange the way they corresponde to something, in this case this band...

I don't know, you tell me..maybe it did. The point is: It's just a theory. I could be right or I could be wrong...I really don't give a fuck. This subject is pending. I will continue on when I'm sober.

I also believe there popularity is due in part to the fact that one of the Dragonforce memebers is Asian. I think some people get kind of intrigued by that and tend to get more into the music. I know it sounds kind of strange, but thats the first thing the drew my attention: the asian guitarist...

Good sound?

For starters i would have to say the Grand Conjuration. Just sounds kind of adolecsent, it has it's moments can't deny them that but overall not very great. However it does make a terrific live song. I also never really like the Leper Affinity, especially that first clean vocal part..I don't...
